Hello.
My name is Jas.
I am now seventeen eighteen nineteen twenty
I am currently an Animation/Illustration major at San Jose State University.
You can either find me drawing at the local coffeeshop or hunched over a lightbox. That's a lie because I'm more likely hunched in front of my computer instead.
Pricelists Industry vs Fandom.
Finally made.
If anyone would care to donate a coloured comic page for the comic industry standard list I’m willing to accept one and will give credit c8 I would’ve made one if I had an example but I don’t -A-
But yes that’s off my chest.
Of course this is based off my own browsing over price lists and how I work unfortunately my commissioner homie went idle so I can’t confirm the most vs the least one can spend.
I’ve only found one artist thus far that charges nearly as close to industry standard. Even then it’s under the standard. As far a I’m concerned anyone under the standard shouldn’t have complaints about expensive art. Fandom average is hardly one you can live by.
Would you like to get paid $30 for 3-7 days worth of work?
Yeah hey, everyone look at this. This is what EVERY artist should be able to charge, even if just the lower rungs.
Gosh
ahahah ok, this actually made me remember one moment that happened on a local Con this summer, we were doing commissions there, and we were drawing A5 format chibies for 5LT(2$) they were lined, colored and looking all nice and this girl comes to us asking about prices and we tell her that chibi drawing is 2$ and she said: wow that`s too expensive and walked away.
ahahahah if only she saw this post :”D
mandatory reblog
checked
oh my god, oh my god, I take back everything I said about artists charging too much 8I poopers! This needs to be spread. Although buh, mostly kids ask kids to draw stuff for them, where can they get so much money?
Signal boost. Artists, learn what your work is worth. Commissioners, learn what you’re asking for. If someone’s serious about being a professional illustrator, they should look into the Graphic Artists’ Guild guidelines before they even touch Loomis or Gurney.
Reblogging for all my art friends.
When the market is saturated with so many artists selling illustrations for such an insanely low price, it makes it...
Maybe I’ve reblogged this before, but I’ll do it again! I don’t plan on making a living on my visual arts, but it’s...
Really sad when people can’t appreciate the talent of the artist, whether they’re a professional or not.
Not everyone is a “deviantart-star”. I’m happy if I get any kind of commission >.>
